The Securities will be issued pursuant to an Indenture dated as of August 23, 2022 (the “Base Indenture”), between the Company and The Bank of New York Mellon, N.A., as trustee (the “Trustee”), as supplemented by the Second Supplemental Indenture, to be dated as of September 12, 2024 (the “Second Supplemental Indenture” and, together with the Base Indenture, the “Indenture”).

In connection with the sale of the Securities, the Company has prepared and delivered to the Underwriters a term sheet dated September 5, 2024 (the “Term Sheet”) substantially in the form attached hereto as Annex A to Schedule II hereto for use by the Underwriters in connection with their solicitation of offers to purchase the Securities. The Company hereby confirms that it has authorized the use of the Term Sheet in connection with the offering of the Securities by the Underwriters in the manner contemplated by this Agreement.

1. (a) The Company represents and warrants to, and agrees with, each of the Underwriters that:

Company in reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time frame specified within the Commission’s rules and forms, including controls and procedures designed to ensure that material information relating to the Company and its subsidiaries is made known to the Company’s principal executive officer and principal financial officer by others within those entities as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding disclosure; such disclosure controls and procedures were effective at a reasonable assurance level; and the Company and its subsidiaries have carried out evaluations of the effectiveness of their disclosure controls and procedures as required by Rule 13a-15 of the Exchange Act;

(a) The Company will indemnify and hold harmless each Underwriter against any losses, claims, damages or liabilities, joint or several, to which such Underwriter may become subject, under the Act, the Exchange Act or otherwise, insofar as such losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions in respect thereof) arise out of or are based upon (i) any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained or incorporated by reference in the Registration Statement or the omission or alleged omission to state therein a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary in order to make the statements therein not misleading, or (ii) any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained or incorporated by reference in any Preliminary Prospectus, the Pricing Prospectus, the Prospectus, the Pricing Disclosure Package (or any amendment or supplement thereto), any Road Show or any Issuer Free Writing Prospectus (in the case of any Issuer Free Writing Prospectus, taken together with the Pricing Disclosure Package), or any omission or alleged omission to state therein a material fact necessary in order to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading, and will reimburse such Underwriter for any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by it in connection with investigating or defending any such action or claim as such expenses are incurred; provided, however, that the Company will not be liable to any Underwriter in any such case to the extent that any such loss, claim, damage or liability arises out of or is based upon an untrue statement or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission made in the Registration Statement, any Preliminary Prospectus, the Pricing Prospectus, the Prospectus, the Pricing Disclosure Package (or any amendment or supplement thereto), any Road Show or any Issuer Free Writing Prospectus, in reliance upon and in conformity with written information furnished to the Company by such Underwriter directly or through the Representatives expressly for use therein, it being understood and agreed that the only such information furnished by any Underwriter consists of the information described as such in Section 9(b) hereof.

(b) Each Underwriter will indemnify and hold harmless the Company against any losses, claims, damages or liabilities to which the Company may become subject, under the Act, the Exchange Act or otherwise, insofar as such losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions in respect thereof) arise out of or are based upon an untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of any material fact contained or incorporated by reference in the Registration Statement, any Preliminary Prospectus, the Pricing Prospectus, the Prospectus, the Pricing Disclosure Package or any amendment or supplement thereto, any Issuer Free Writing Prospectus (taken together with the Pricing Disclosure Package) or any Road Show, or arise out of or are based upon the omission or the alleged omission to state therein a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading (in the case of the Preliminary Prospectus, the Pricing Prospectus, the Prospectus, the Pricing Disclosure Package or any amendment or supplement thereto, or any Issuer Free Writing Prospectus, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made), in each case to the extent, but only to the extent, that such untrue statement or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission was made or incorporated by reference in the Registration Statement, any Preliminary Prospectus, the Pricing Prospectus, the Prospectus, the Pricing Disclosure Package or any amendment or supplement thereto, any Road Show or any Issuer Free Writing Prospectus, in reliance upon and in conformity with written information furnished to the Company by such Underwriter directly or through the Representatives expressly for use therein; and will reimburse the Company for any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by the Company in connection with investigating or defending any such action or claim as such expenses are incurred. For

purposes of this Agreement, the only information so furnished shall be the marketing names of the Underwriters at the bottom of the front and back cover of each of the Preliminary Prospectus, the Pricing Prospectus and the Prospectus, the statements in the twelfth and fourteenth paragraphs of the “Underwriting” section of each of the Preliminary Prospectus, the Pricing Prospectus and the Prospectus discussing penalty bids and stabilization and syndicate covering transactions.

(c) Promptly after receipt by an indemnified party under subsection (a) or (b) of this Section 9 of notice of the commencement of any action, such indemnified party shall, if a claim in respect thereof is to be made against the indemnifying party under such subsection, notify the indemnifying party in writing of the commencement thereof; but the omission so to notify the indemnifying party will not relieve it from any liability which it may have to any indemnified party otherwise than under such subsection except to the extent that it has been prejudiced by such failure. In case any such action is brought against any indemnified party and it notifies the indemnifying party of the commencement thereof, the indemnifying party will be entitled to participate therein and, to the extent that it may wish, jointly with any other indemnifying party similarly notified, to assume the defense thereof, with counsel reasonably satisfactory to such indemnified party (who shall not, except with the consent of the indemnified party, be counsel to the indemnifying party), and, after notice from the indemnifying party to such indemnified party of its election so to assume the defense thereof, the indemnifying party will not be liable to such indemnified party under such subsection for any legal expenses of other counsel or any other expenses, in each case subsequently incurred by such indemnified party, in connection with the defense thereof other than reasonable costs of investigation. To the extent that an indemnifying party does not assume the defense of any such action, it is understood that the indemnifying party or parties shall not, in connection with any one action or proceeding or separate but substantially similar actions or proceedings arising out of the same general allegations, be liable for the fees and expenses of more than one separate firm of attorneys at any time for all indemnified parties (except to the extent that one firm of local counsel for any jurisdiction, in addition to any regular counsel, is required to effectively defend against any such action or proceedings); provided that the fees and expenses of such separate firm of attorneys and any legal counsel shall be reasonably incurred. The indemnifying party shall not be liable for any settlement of any proceeding effected without its written consent, but if settled with such consent or if there be a final judgment for the plaintiff that is not subject to further appeal, the indemnifying party agrees to indemnify each indemnified party from and against any loss or liability by reason of such settlement or judgment. No indemnifying party shall, without the written consent of the indemnified party, effect any settlement of any pending or threatened proceeding in respect of which any indemnified party is or could have been a party and indemnification could have been sought hereunder by such indemnified party, unless such settlement (x) includes an unconditional release of such indemnified party from all liability on claims that are the subject matter of such proceeding and (y) does not include any statement as to or any admission of fault, culpability or a failure to act by or on behalf of any indemnified party.

(d) If the indemnification provided for in this Section 9 is unavailable to or insufficient to hold harmless an indemnified party under subsection (a) or (b) above in respect of any losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions in respect thereof) referred to therein, then each indemnifying party shall contribute to the amount paid or payable by such indemnified party as a result of such losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions in respect thereof) in

such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative benefits for the Company on the one hand and the Underwriters of the Securities on the other from the offering of the Securities to which such loss, claim, damage or liability (or action in respect thereof) relates. If, however, the allocation provided by the immediately preceding sentence is not permitted by applicable law, then each indemnifying party shall contribute to such amount paid or payable by such indemnified party in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect not only such relative benefits but also the relative fault of the Company on the one hand and the Underwriters of the Securities on the other in connection with the statements or omissions which resulted in such losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions in respect thereof), as well as any other relevant equitable considerations. The relative benefits for the Company on the one hand and such Underwriters of the Securities on the other shall be deemed to be in the same proportion as the total net proceeds from such offering (before deducting expenses) from the sale of all Securities to be sold pursuant to this Agreement bear to the total underwriting discounts and commissions received by such Underwriters in respect thereof. The relative fault shall be determined by reference to, among other things, whether the untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact or the omission or alleged omission to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading relates to information supplied by the Company on the one hand or by such Underwriters on the other and the parties’ relative intent, knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent such statement or omission. The Company and the Underwriters agree that it would not be just and equitable if contribution pursuant to this subsection (e) were determined by pro rata allocation (even if the Underwriters were treated as one entity for such purpose) or by any other method of allocation which does not take account of the equitable considerations referred to above in this subsection (e). The amount paid or payable by an indemnified party as a result of the losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions in respect thereof) referred to above in this subsection (e) shall be deemed to include any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by such indemnified party in connection with investigating or defending any such action or claim. Notwithstanding the provisions of this subsection (e), no Underwriter shall be required to contribute any amount in excess of the amount by which the total price at which the Securities underwritten by it and distributed to the public were offered to the public exceeds the amount of any damages which such Underwriter has otherwise been required to pay by reason of such untrue or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission. No person guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section 11(f) of the Act) shall be entitled to contribution from any person who was not guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation. The obligations of the Underwriters of the Securities in this subsection (e) to contribute are several in proportion to their respective underwriting obligations with respect to such Securities and not joint.

(e) The obligations of the Company under this Section 9 shall be in addition to any liability which the Company may otherwise have and shall extend, upon the same terms and conditions, to each person, if any, who controls any Underwriter within the meaning of the Act and the affiliates, employees, directors and officers of any Underwriter; and the obligations of the Underwriters under this Section 9 shall be in addition to any liability which the respective Underwriters may otherwise have and shall extend, upon the same terms and conditions, to each affiliate, employee, officer and director of the Company and to each person, if any, who controls the Company within the meaning of the Act.

10. (a) If any Underwriter shall default in its obligation to purchase the Securities which it has agreed to purchase under this Agreement at the Time of Delivery, the Representatives may in its discretion arrange for itself or another party or other parties to purchase such Securities on the terms contained herein. If within thirty-six hours after such default by any Underwriter, the Representatives do not arrange for the purchase of such Securities, then the Company shall be entitled to a further period of thirty-six hours within which to procure another party or other parties satisfactory to the Representatives to purchase such Securities on such terms. In the event that, within the prescribed period, the Representatives notify the Company that the Representatives have so arranged for the purchase of such Securities, or the Company notify the Representatives that they have so arranged for the purchase of such Securities, the Representatives or the Company, as the case may be, shall have the right to postpone the Time of Delivery for such Securities for a period of not more than seven days, in order to effect whatever changes may thereby be made necessary in the Registration Statement or the Prospectus, or in any other documents or arrangements, and the Company agrees to file promptly any amendments or supplements to the Registration Statement or the Prospectus which in the opinion of the Representatives may thereby be made necessary. The term “Underwriter” as used in this Agreement shall include any person substituted under this Section 10 with like effect as if such person had originally been a party to this Agreement with respect to such Securities.

(b) If, after giving effect to any arrangements for the purchase of the Securities of a defaulting Underwriter or Underwriters by the Representatives and the Company as provided in subsection 10(a) above, the aggregate principal amount of such Securities which remains unpurchased does not exceed one-tenth of the aggregate principal amount of all the Securities to be purchased at such Time of Delivery, then the Company shall have the right to require each non-defaulting Underwriter to purchase the principal amount of Securities which such Underwriter agreed to purchase under this Agreement at such Time of Delivery relating to such Securities and, in addition, to require each non-defaulting Underwriter to purchase its pro rata share (based on the principal amount of Securities which such Underwriter agreed to purchase under this Agreement) of the Securities of such defaulting Underwriter or Underwriters for which such arrangements have not been made; but nothing herein shall relieve a defaulting Underwriter from liability for its default.

(c) If, after giving effect to any arrangements for the purchase of the Securities of a defaulting Underwriter or Underwriters by the Representatives and the Company as provided in subsection (a) above, the aggregate principal amount of Securities which remains unpurchased exceeds one-tenth of the aggregate principal amount of the Securities, as referred to in subsection (b) above, or if the Company shall not exercise the right described in subsection (b) above to require non-defaulting Underwriters to purchase Securities of a defaulting Underwriter or Underwriters, then this Agreement relating to such Securities shall thereupon terminate, without liability on the part of any non-defaulting Underwriter or the Company, except for the expenses to be borne by the Company and the Underwriters as provided in Section 7 hereof and the indemnity and contribution agreements in Section 9 hereof; but nothing herein shall relieve a defaulting Underwriter from liability for its default.

11. The respective indemnities, agreements, representations, warranties, rights of contribution and other statements of the Company and the Underwriters, as set forth in this

Agreement or made by or on behalf of them, respectively, pursuant to this Agreement, shall remain in full force and effect, regardless of any termination of this Agreement or any investigation (or any statement as to the results thereof) made by or on behalf of any Underwriter, the Company, any controlling person of any Underwriter, the Company, or any officer or director of the Company and shall survive delivery of and payment for the Securities.

12. If the sale of the Securities provided for herein is not consummated, or if this Agreement is terminated by the Underwriters, because any condition to the obligations of the Underwriters set forth in Section 8 hereof is not satisfied (other than any termination pursuant to subsection (i), (iii), (iv) or (v) of Section 8(k) hereof), or because of any refusal, inability or failure of the Company to perform any agreement herein or comply with any provision hereof other than by reason of a default by any of the Underwriters under Section 10 hereof, the Company will reimburse the Underwriters severally through the Representatives on demand for all out-of-pocket expenses (including reasonable fees and disbursements of counsel) that shall have been reasonably incurred by them in connection with the proposed purchase and sale of the Securities not delivered, but the Company shall then be under no further liability to any Underwriter except as provided in Section 7 and Section 9 hereof.

13. In all dealings hereunder, the Representatives of the Underwriters of the Securities shall act on behalf of each of such Underwriters, and the parties hereto shall be entitled to act and rely upon any statement, request, notice or agreement on behalf of any Underwriter made or given by the Representatives.

14. All statements, requests, notices and advices hereunder shall be in writing, or by telephone if promptly confirmed in writing, and if to an Underwriter, shall be sufficient in all respects when delivered or sent by electronic mail, facsimile transmission or registered mail to the Representatives at the notice address set forth in Schedule I, if to the Company shall be sufficient in all respects when delivered or sent by electronic mail or registered mail to Corebridge Financial, Inc., Attention: Executive Vice President and General Counsel, Address: 21650 Oxnard Street, Suite 750, Woodland Hills, CA 91367, Email: chris.nixon@corebridgefinancial.com, elias.habayeb@corebridgefinancial.com, ryan.minetti@corebridgefinancial.com, and justin.caulfield@corebridgefinancial.com.

15. This Agreement shall be binding upon, and inure solely to the benefit of, the Underwriters, the Company and, to the extent provided in Section 9 and Section 11 hereof, the officers and directors of the Company and each person who controls the Company or any Underwriter, and their respective heirs, executors, administrators, personal representatives, successors and assigns; and no other person shall acquire or have any right under or by virtue of this Agreement. No purchaser of any of the Securities from any Underwriter shall be deemed a successor or assign by reason merely of such purchase.

16. In accordance with the requirements of the USA Patriot Act (Title III of Pub. L. 107-56 (signed into law October 26, 2001)), the Underwriters are required to obtain, verify and record information that identifies their respective clients, including the Company, which information may include the name and address of their respective clients, as well as other information that will allow the Underwriters to properly identify their respective clients.

17. Recognition of the U.S. Special Resolution Regimes.

(a) In the event that any Underwriter that is a Covered Entity becomes subject to a proceeding under a U.S. Special Resolution Regime, the transfer from such Underwriter of this Agreement, and any interest and obligation in or under this Agreement, will be effective to the same extent as the transfer would be effective under the U.S. Special Resolution Regime if this Agreement, and any such interest and obligation, were governed by the laws of the United States or a state of the United States.

(b) In the event that any Underwriter that is a Covered Entity or a BHC Act Affiliate of such Underwriter that becomes subject to a proceeding under a U.S. Special Resolution Regime, Default Rights under this Agreement that may be exercised against such Underwriter are permitted to be exercised to no greater extent than such Default Rights could be exercised under the U.S. Special Resolution Regime if this Agreement were governed by the laws of the United States or a state of the United States.

For the purposes of this Section 17:

“BHC Act Affiliate” has the meaning assigned to the term “affiliate” in, and shall be interpreted in accordance with, 12 U.S.C. § 1841(k).

“Covered Entity” means any of the following:

(i) a “covered entity” as that term is defined in, and interpreted in accordance with, 12 C.F.R. § 252.82(b);

(ii) a “covered bank” as that term is defined in, and interpreted in accordance with, 12 C.F.R. § 47.3(b); or

(iii) a “covered FSI” as that term is defined in, and interpreted in accordance with, 12 C.F.R. § 382.2(b).

“Default Right” has the meaning assigned to that term in, and shall be interpreted in accordance with, 12 C.F.R. §§ 252.81, 47.2 or 382.1, as applicable.

“U.S. Special Resolution Regime” means each of (i) the Federal Deposit Insurance Act and the regulations promulgated thereunder and (ii) Title II of the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act and the regulations promulgated thereunder.

18. This Agreement supersedes all prior agreements and understandings (whether written or oral) among all of the Company and the Underwriters with respect to the subject matter hereof.

19. (a) This Agreement and any claim, controversy or dispute arising under or related to this Agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of New York notwithstanding conflict of laws provisions that would require the application of the laws of any other jurisdiction.

(b) Each of the parties hereby submits to the exclusive jurisdiction of the U.S. federal and New York state courts in the Borough of Manhattan in The City of New York in any suit or proceeding arising out of or relating to this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby. Each of the parties waives any objection which it may now or hereafter have to the laying of venue of any such suit or proceeding in such courts. Each of the parties agrees that final judgment in any such suit, action or proceeding brought in such court shall be conclusive and binding upon each of the parties, as applicable, and may be enforced in any court to the jurisdiction of which each of the parties, as applicable, is subject by a suit upon such judgment.

20. Time shall be of the essence in this Agreement.

21. This Agreement may be executed by any one or more of the parties hereto in any number of counterparts, each of which when so executed shall be deemed to be an original, but all of such counterparts shall together constitute one and the same instrument. Counterparts may be delivered via facsimile, electronic mail (including any electronic signature complying with the New York Electronic Signatures and Records Act (N.Y. State Tech. §§ 301-309), as amended from time to time, or covered by the U.S. federal ESIGN Act of 2000, Uniform Electronic Transactions Act, the Electronic Signatures and Records Act or other applicable law, e.g., www.docusign.com) or other transmission method and any counterpart so delivered shall be deemed to have been duly and validly delivered and be valid and effective for all purposes.

If the foregoing is in accordance with your understanding, please sign and return to us nine counterparts hereof, whereupon this letter and the acceptance by each of you thereof shall constitute a binding agreement among the Company and the Underwriters.

Very truly yours,

caption “Treasury Constant Maturities” in the Most Recent H.15. If the Five-Year Treasury Rate cannot be determined pursuant to the preceding sentence, the Calculation Agent, after consulting such sources as it deems comparable to any of the foregoing calculations, or any such source as it deems reasonable from which to estimate the Five-Year Treasury Rate, will determine the Five-Year Treasury Rate in its sole discretion, provided that if the Calculation Agent determines there is an industry-accepted successor Five-Year Treasury Rate, then the Calculation Agent will use such successor rate. If the Calculation Agent has determined a substitute or successor base rate in accordance with the foregoing, the Calculation Agent in its sole discretion may determine the Business Day convention, the definition of Business Day and the Reset Interest Determination Date to be used and any other relevant methodology for calculating such substitute or successor base rate, including any adjustment factor needed to make such substitute or successor base rate comparable to the Five-Year Treasury Rate, in a manner that is consistent with industry-accepted practices for such substitute or successor base rate.

“Initial Interest Reset Date” means September 15, 2034

“Interest Period” means the period from, and including September 12, 2024 to, but excluding, March 15, 2025, and the period from, and including, each Interest Payment Date to, but excluding, the next Interest Payment Date or, if earlier, the Maturity Date.

“Most Recent H.15” means the H.15 published closest in time but prior to the close of business on the applicable Reset Interest Determination Date.

“Original Issue Date” means September 12, 2024.

“Pari Passu Securities” means (i) the Company’s $1 billion aggregate principal amount of the 6.875% Fixed-to-Fixed Reset Rate Junior Subordinated Notes due 2052, (ii) CRBGLH’s $54 million aggregate principal amount of 8.500% junior subordinated debentures due July 2030, (iii) CRBGLH’s $142 million aggregate principal amount of 8.125% junior subordinated debentures due March 2046 and (iv) CRBGLH’s $31 million aggregate principal amount of 7.570% junior subordinated debentures due December 2045.

“Parity Securities” means indebtedness of the Company that by its terms ranks in right of payment upon liquidation of the Company on a parity with the Notes, and includes the Notes and the Pari Passu Securities.

“Rating Agency Event” means that any nationally recognized statistical rating organization within the meaning of Section 3(a)(62) under the Exchange Act that then publishes a rating for the Company (a “rating agency”) amends, clarifies or changes the criteria it uses to

assign equity credit to securities such as the Notes, which amendment, clarification or change results in:

(i) the shortening of the length of time the Notes are assigned a particular level of equity credit by that rating agency compared to the length of time they would have been assigned that level of equity credit by that rating agency or its predecessor on the date hereof; or

(ii) the lowering of the equity credit (including up to a lesser amount) assigned to the Notes by that rating agency compared to the equity credit assigned by that rating agency or its predecessor on the date hereof.

“Regulatory Capital Event” means that the Company becomes subject to capital adequacy supervision by a capital regulator and the capital adequacy guidelines that apply to the Company as a result of being so subject set forth criteria pursuant to which the full principal amount of the Notes would not qualify as capital under such capital adequacy guidelines, as the Company may determine at any time, in its sole discretion.

“Reset Interest Determination Date” means, in respect of any Interest Reset Period, the day falling two Business Days prior to the beginning of such Interest Reset Period.

“Supplemental Indenture” means this instrument as originally executed or as it from time to time may be supplemented or amended by one or more agreements supplemental hereto.

“Tax Event” means the receipt by the Company of an opinion of independent counsel experienced in such matters to the effect that, as a result of any:

(i) amendment to or change (including any officially announced proposed change) in the laws or regulations of the United States or any political subdivision or taxing authority of or in the United States that is enacted or effective on or after the date hereof;

(ii) official administrative decision or judicial decision or administrative action or other official pronouncement (including a private letter ruling, technical advice memorandum or other similar pronouncement) by any court, government agency or regulatory authority that reflects an amendment to, or change in, the interpretation or application of those laws or regulations that is announced on or after the date hereof; or

(iii) threatened challenge asserted in connection with an audit of the Company, or a threatened challenge asserted in writing against any taxpayer that has raised capital through the issuance of securities that are substantially similar to the Notes, which challenge is asserted against the Company or becomes publicly known on or after the date hereof,

there is more than an insubstantial increase in the risk that interest payable by the Company on the Notes is not, or within 90 days of the date of such opinion will not be, deductible by the Company, in whole or in part, for U.S. federal income tax purposes.

“Treasury Rate” means, with respect to any redemption date, the yield determined by the Company in accordance with the following two paragraphs:

(i) The Treasury Rate shall be determined by the Company after 4:15 p.m., New York City time (or after such time as yields on U.S. government securities are posted daily by the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System), on the third Business Day preceding the redemption date based upon the yield or yields for the most recent day that appear after such time on such day in the most recent statistical release published by the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System designated as “Selected Interest Rates (Daily) - H.15” (or any successor designation or publication) (“H.15”) under the caption “U.S. government securities–Treasury constant maturities–Nominal” (or any successor caption or heading). In determining the Treasury Rate, the Company shall select, as applicable: (1) the yield for the Treasury constant maturity on H.15 exactly equal to the period from the redemption date to the Reference Date (the “Remaining Life”); or (2) if there is no such Treasury constant maturity on H.15 exactly equal to the Remaining Life, the two yields – one yield corresponding to the Treasury constant maturity on H.15 immediately shorter than and one yield corresponding to the Treasury constant maturity on H.15 immediately longer than the Remaining Life – and shall interpolate to the Reference Date on a straight-line basis (using the actual number of days) using such yields and rounding the result to three decimal places; or (3) if there is no such Treasury constant maturity on H.15 shorter than or longer than the Remaining Life, the yield for the single Treasury constant maturity on H.15 closest to the Remaining Life. For purposes of this paragraph, the applicable Treasury constant maturity or maturities on H.15 shall be deemed to have a maturity date equal to the relevant number of months or years, as applicable, of such Treasury constant maturity from the redemption date.

(ii) If on the third Business Day preceding the redemption date H.15 or any successor designation or publication is no longer published, the Company shall calculate the Treasury Rate based on the rate per annum equal to the semi-annual equivalent yield to maturity at 11:00 a.m., New York City time, on the second Business Day preceding such redemption date of the United States Treasury security maturing on, or with a maturity that is closest to, the Reference Date, as applicable. If there is no United States Treasury security maturing on the Reference Date but there are two or more United States Treasury securities with a maturity date equally distant from the Reference Date, one with a maturity date preceding the Reference Date and one with a maturity date following the Reference Date, the Company shall select the United States Treasury security with a maturity date preceding the Reference Date. If there are two or more United States Treasury securities maturing on the Reference Date or two or more United States Treasury securities meeting the criteria of the preceding sentence, the Company shall select from among these two or more United States Treasury securities the United States Treasury security that is trading closest to par based upon the average of the bid and asked prices for such United States Treasury securities at 11:00 a.m., New York City time. In determining the Treasury Rate in accordance with the terms of this paragraph, the semi-annual yield to maturity of the applicable United States Treasury security shall be based upon the average of the bid and asked prices (expressed as a

percentage of principal amount) at 11:00 a.m., New York City time, of such United States Treasury security, and rounded to three decimal places.

ARTICLE TWO

General Terms and Conditions of the Notes

Section 2.01. Forms of Notes Generally

Section 2.04. Designation; Principal Amount and Denominations

(a) Designation

Pursuant to Sections 2.01 and 3.01 of the Existing Indenture, there is hereby established a series of Securities of the Company designated as the 6.375% Fixed-to-Fixed Reset Rate Junior Subordinated Notes due 2054, the principal amount of which to be issued shall be in accordance with Section 2.04(b) and as set forth in a Company Order for the authentication and delivery of Notes pursuant to the Existing Indenture, and the form and terms of which shall be as set forth hereinafter.

(b) Principal Amount; Additional Notes

Notes in an initial aggregate principal amount of $750,000,000 upon execution of this Supplemental Indenture, shall be executed by the Company and delivered to the Trustee, and the Trustee shall thereupon authenticate and deliver said Notes in accordance with a Company Order. At any time and from time to time after the date hereof, without the consent of any Holders of the Notes, the Company may execute and deliver additional Notes to the Trustee for authentication, in an unlimited amount together with a Company Order for the authentication and delivery of such additional Notes, so long as such additional Notes are issued either (i) pursuant to a “qualified reopening” of the original series, (ii) with less than the de minimis threshold for original issue discount or (iii) otherwise as part of the same “issue” of debt instruments as the original series, in each case for U.S. federal income tax purposes. Any additional Notes so issued shall have the same terms and conditions as the Notes issued on the date hereof in all respects, except for any difference in the issue date, issue price, interest accrued prior to the issue date of the additional Notes and first Interest Payment Date and shall be governed by this Supplemental Indenture and shall rank equally and ratably in right of payment with the Notes issued on the date of this Supplemental Indenture and, together with the Notes issued as of the date of this Supplemental Indenture, shall be treated as a single series of Notes for all purposes.

The Notes shall be issuable only in registered form without coupons in minimum denominations of $2,000 and any integral multiples of $1,000 in excess thereof.

Section 2.05. Maturity

The Notes will mature on September 15, 2054 (the “Maturity Date”). If the Maturity Date is not a Business Day, payment of principal and interest to be made on the Maturity Date shall be made on the next Business Day (but no interest shall accrue as a result of such postponement).

Section 2.06. Depositary

The Notes shall be substantially in the form of Exhibit A, shall include the Trustee’s certificate of authentication in the form required by Section 2.05 of the Existing Indenture and shall be issued in fully registered definitive form without interest coupons.

The Notes initially are issuable solely as Global Securities and shall bear the legend required by Section 2.04 of the Existing Indenture.

With respect to Notes issuable or issued in whole or in part in the form of one or more Global Notes, the Depositary shall be The Depository Trust Company, for so long as it shall be a clearing agency registered under the Exchange Act, or such successor (which shall be a clearing agency registered under the Exchange Act) as the Company shall designate from time to time in an Officers’ Certificate delivered to the Trustee.

Section 2.07. Rate of Interest; Interest Payment Dates

(a) Rate of Interest; Accrual

The Notes shall bear interest on their principal amount: (i) from, and including, September 12, 2024, to, but excluding, the Initial Interest Reset Date at the rate of 6.375% per annum and (ii) from and including the Initial Interest Reset Date, during each Interest Reset Period, at the rate equal to the Five-Year Treasury Rate as of the most recent Reset Interest Determination Date, plus 2.646% per annum, computed on the basis of a 360-day year consisting of twelve 30-day months. Defaulted Interest and interest deferred pursuant to Section 2.08 will bear interest, to the extent permitted by law, at the interest rate in effect from time to time provided in this Section 2.07(a), from and including the relevant Interest Payment Date, compounded on each subsequent Interest Payment Date.

(b) Calculation Agent

Unless the Company has redeemed all of the outstanding Notes as of the Initial Interest Reset Date, the Company shall appoint a Calculation Agent with respect to the Notes prior to the Reset Interest Determination Date preceding the Initial Interest Reset Date. The applicable interest rate for each Interest Reset Period will be determined by the Calculation Agent as of the applicable Reset Interest Determination Date. If the Company or one of its affiliates is not the Calculation Agent, the Calculation Agent shall notify the Company of the interest rate for the relevant Interest Reset Period promptly upon such determination. The Company shall notify the Trustee of such interest rate, promptly upon making or being notified of such determination. The Calculation Agent’s determination of any interest rate and its calculation of the amount of interest for any Interest Reset Period beginning on or after the Initial Interest Reset Date will be conclusive and binding absent manifest error, will be made in the Calculation Agent’s sole discretion and, notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the Indenture or this Note, will become effective without consent from any other person or entity. Such determination of any interest rate and calculation of the amount of interest will be on file at the Company’s principal offices and will be made available to any Holder upon request. In no event shall the Trustee be the Calculation Agent, nor shall it have any liability for any determination made by or on behalf of such Calculation Agent.

The Trustee shall not be under an obligation (i) to monitor, determine or verify the unavailability or cessation of the Five-Year Treasury Rate (or any other index), or whether or when there has occurred, or to give notice to any other transaction party of the occurrence of, any cessation of such Five-Year Treasury Rate (or other index) or of the related replacement date, (ii)

to select, determine or designate any alternative replacement, or other successor or replacement benchmark index, or whether any conditions to the designation of such a rate or index have been satisfied, or (iii) to select, determine or designate any replacement adjustment, or other modifier to any replacement or successor index, or (iv) to determine whether or what conforming changes are necessary or advisable, if any, in connection with any of the foregoing, including, but not limited to, adjustments as to any alternative spread thereon, the business day convention, interest determination dates or any other relevant methodology applicable to such substitute or successor benchmark. In connection with the foregoing, the Trustee shall be entitled to conclusively rely on any determinations made by the Calculation Agent, the Company or its designee without independent investigation, and the Trustee will not have any liability for actions taken at the Company’s direction in connection therewith. The Trustee shall not be liable for the inability, failure or delay on its part to perform any of its duties in the Indenture or with respect to the Notes as a result of the unavailability of the Five-Year Treasury Rate or other applicable replacement, including as a result of any failure, inability, delay, error or inaccuracy on the part of any other transaction party in providing any direction, instruction, notice or information required or contemplated hereby and reasonably required for the performance of such duties. The Trustee shall not be responsible or liable for the actions or omissions of the Calculation Agent or the Company or for those of the Company’s designee, or for any failure or delay in the performance by the Calculation Agent, the Company or the Company’s designee, nor shall the Trustee be under an obligation to oversee or monitor the performance hereunder of the Calculation Agent, the Company or the Company’s designee.

Subject to Section 2.08, accrued interest on the Notes shall be payable semi-annually in arrears on March 15 and September 15 of each year, commencing on March 15, 2025, and on the Maturity Date (each such date, an “Interest Payment Date”), or if any such day is not a Business Day, the next Business Day (but no interest will accrue as a result of that postponement), to the Holders of the Notes at the close of business on the immediately preceding March 1 and September 1 (in each case, whether or not a Business Day), as the case may be.

Section 2.08. Deferral

(a) Option to Defer Interest Payments

(i) So long as no Event of Default with respect to the Notes has occurred or is continuing, the Company shall have the right, at any time and from time to time, to defer the payment of interest on the Notes for one or more consecutive Interest Periods that do not exceed five years for any single Deferral Period, provided that no Deferral Period shall extend beyond the Maturity Date, any earlier accelerated maturity date arising from an Event of Default or any other earlier redemption of the Notes. If the Company has paid all deferred interest (including compounded interest thereon) on the Notes, the Company shall have the right to elect to begin a new Deferral Period pursuant to this Section 2.08(a).

(ii) At the end of any Deferral Period, the Company shall pay all deferred interest (including compounded interest thereon) on the Notes to the Persons in whose

names the Notes are registered in the Security Register at the close of business on the Regular Record Date with respect to the Interest Payment Date at the end of such Deferral Period.

(b) Notice of Deferral

The Company shall give written notice of its election to commence or continue any Deferral Period to the Trustee and the Holders of the Notes at least one Business Day and not more than 60 Business Days before the next Interest Payment Date. Such notice shall be given to the Trustee and each Holder of Notes at such Holder’s address appearing in the Security Register by first-class mail, postage prepaid (or, as long as the Notes are held through DTC, such notice shall be transmitted in accordance with applicable procedures of DTC).

Section 2.09. Events of Default

(a) Clauses (1) through (4) of Section 5.01 of the Existing Indenture shall not apply to the Notes. Clauses (5) and (6) of Section 5.01 of the Existing Indenture shall apply to the Notes.

(b) If an Event of Default specified in Clause (5) or (6) of Section 5.01 of the Existing Indenture occurs, the principal amount of all the Notes shall automatically, and without any declaration or other action on the part of the Trustee or any Holder, become immediately due and payable.

(c) The Trustee shall provide to the Holders of the Notes notice of any Event of Default or default with respect to the Notes within 90 days after the Trustee has knowledge (as provided in Section 6.03(11) of the Existing Indenture) of such Event of Default or default. However, except in the case of a default in payment on the Notes, the Trustee will be protected in withholding the notice if the Trustee determines that withholding of the notice is in the interest of such Holders.

(d) The Trustee shall have no right or obligation under the Indenture or otherwise to exercise any remedies on behalf of any Holders of the Notes pursuant to the Indenture in connection with any default, unless such remedies are available under the Indenture and the Trustee is directed to exercise such remedies pursuant to and subject to the conditions of Section 5.12 of the Existing Indenture, provided, however, that this provision shall not affect the rights of the Trustee with respect to any Events of Default as set forth in Section 2.09(b) that may occur with respect to the Notes. In connection with any such exercise of remedies the Trustee shall be entitled to the same immunities and protections and remedial rights (other than acceleration) as if such default were an Event of Default.

(e) For purposes of this Section 2.09, the term “default” means any of the following events:

(i) default in the payment of interest, including compounded interest, in full on any Notes for a period of 30 days after the conclusion of a five-year period following the commencement of any Deferral Period if such Deferral Period has not ended prior to the conclusion of such five-year period;

(ii) default in the payment of principal of or premium, if any, on the Notes when due; or

(iii) default in the observance or performance of any covenant or agreement contained in the Indenture or the Notes.

Section 2.10. Security Registrar; Paying Agent; Place of Payment

The Company appoints the Trustee as Security Registrar and Paying Agent with respect to the Notes. The Place of Payment for the Notes will be as specified in the Notes.

Section 2.11. No Sinking Fund

The Notes shall not be subject to Article XII of the Existing Indenture.

Section 2.12. Subordination

The subordination provisions of Article XIV of the Existing Indenture shall apply to the Notes, except that solely for purposes of the Notes, Section 14.03 of the Existing Indenture shall be amended as follows:

(a) Clauses (1) and (2) of Section 14.03 of the Existing Indenture shall be deleted and replaced with the following:

“(1) (i) In the event and during the continuation of any default in the payment of principal, premium, if any, or interest on any Senior Indebtedness beyond any applicable grace period with respect thereto, (ii) in the event that any event of default with respect to any Senior Indebtedness shall have occurred and be continuing, permitting the direct holders of that Senior Indebtedness (or a trustee on behalf of the holders thereof) to accelerate maturity of that Senior Indebtedness, whether or not the maturity is in fact accelerated (unless, in the case of either subclause (i) or (ii) of this clause (1), the payment default or event of default has been cured or waived or ceased to exist and any related acceleration has been rescinded), or (iii) in the event that any judicial proceeding shall be pending with respect to a payment default or event of default described in subclause (i) or (i) of this clause (1), no payment or distribution of any kind or character, whether in cash, securities or other property, shall be made by the Company on account of the principal of or interest on the Notes unless and until all amounts then due and payable in respect of such Senior Indebtedness, including any interest accrued after such event occurs, shall have been paid in full.”

(b) Clause “(3)” of Section 14.03 of the Existing Indenture shall be renumbered clause “(2)”; and

Section 2.13. Defeasance

The Notes shall be subject to the defeasance and discharge provisions of Section 13.02 of the Existing Indenture and the provisions of Section 13.03 of the Existing Indenture regarding defeasance of certain covenants and certain events of default.

Notwithstanding any other provision in this Indenture, no Global Note may be exchanged in whole or in part for Notes registered, and no transfer of a Global Note in whole or in part may be registered, in the name of any Person other than the Depositary for such Global Note or a nominee thereof unless (A) such Depositary has notified the Company that it is unwilling or unable or no longer permitted under applicable law to continue as Depositary for such Global Note and the Company does not appoint another institution to act as Depositary within 90 days, (B) there shall have occurred and be continuing an Event of Default with respect to such Global Note, or (C) the Company so directs the Trustee by a Company Order.

ARTICLE THREE

Covenants

Section 3.01. Dividend and Other Payment Stoppages

So long as any Notes remain outstanding, (a) if the Company has given notice of its election to defer interest payments on the Notes but the related Deferral Period has not yet commenced, or (b) a Deferral Period is continuing, the Company shall not, and shall not permit any Subsidiary to:

(i) declare or pay any dividends or distributions on, or redeem, purchase, acquire or make a liquidation payment with respect to, any shares of capital stock of the Company;

(ii) make any payment of principal of, or interest or premium, if any, on, or repay, purchase or redeem any of the Company’s debt securities that rank upon the Company’s liquidation on a parity with or junior to the Notes (including the Pari Passu Securities); or

(iii) make any guarantee payments regarding any guarantee issued by the Company of securities of any Subsidiary if the guarantee ranks upon the Company’s liquidation on a parity with or junior to the Notes;

provided, however, the restrictions in clauses (i), (ii) and (iii) above do not apply to:

(A) any purchase, redemption or other acquisition of shares of its capital stock by the Company in connection with:

(1) any employment contract, benefit plan or other similar arrangement with or for the benefit of any one or more of its employees, officers, directors, consultants or independent contractors;

(2) the satisfaction of the Company’s obligations pursuant to any contract entered into prior to the beginning of the applicable Deferral Period;

(3) a dividend reinvestment or shareholder purchase plan; or

(4) the issuance of shares of the Company’s capital stock, or securities convertible into or exercisable for such capital stock, as consideration in an acquisition transaction, the definitive agreement for which is entered into prior to the applicable Deferral Period;

(B) any exchange, redemption or conversion of any class or series of the Company’s capital stock, or shares of the capital stock of one of its Subsidiaries, for any other class or series of the Company’s capital stock, or of any class or series of the Company’s indebtedness for any class or series of the Company’s capital stock;

(C) any purchase of fractional interests in shares of the Company’s capital stock pursuant to the conversion or exchange provisions of such capital stock or the securities being converted or exchanged;

(D) any declaration of a dividend in connection with any shareholder rights plan, or the issuance of rights, stock or other property under any shareholder rights plan, or the redemption or purchase of rights pursuant thereto; or

(E) any dividend in the form of stock, warrants, options or other rights where the dividend stock issuable upon exercise of such warrants, options or other rights is the same stock as that on which the dividend is being paid or ranks equally with or junior to such stock; or

(F) (i) any payment of current or deferred interest on Parity Securities that is made pro rata to the amounts due on such Parity Securities (including the Notes) and (ii) any payments of principal or current or deferred interest on Parity Securities that, if not made, would cause the Company to breach the terms of the instrument governing such Parity Securities.

For the avoidance of doubt, notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, no terms of the Notes will restrict in any manner the ability of any of the Subsidiaries to pay dividends or make any distributions to the Company or to any other Subsidiaries.

6.375% FIXED-TO-FIXED RESET RATE JUNIOR SUBORDINATED NOTES DUE 2054

No.

CUSIP No.: 21871X AT6

ISIN No.: US21871XAT63

COREBRIDGE FINANCIAL, INC., a corporation duly organized and existing under the laws of Delaware (herein called the “Company,” which term includes any successor Person under the Indenture hereinafter referred to), for value received, hereby promises to pay to Cede & Co., or its registered assigns, the principal sum of ______ dollars ($___________) on September 15, 2054 (the “Maturity Date”), or if such day is not a Business Day (as defined below), the following Business Day and no interest will accrue as a result of the postponement.

The Company further promises to pay interest on said principal sum (i) from and including September 12, 2024 to, but not including, September 15, 2034 at the rate of 6.375% per annum and (ii) from and including September 15, 2034, during each Interest Reset Period, at the rate equal to the Five-Year Treasury Rate as of the most recent Reset Interest Determination Date, plus 2.646% per annum (computed on the basis of a 360-day year consisting of twelve 30-day months) semi-annually in arrears on March 15 and September 15 of each year, commencing on March 15, 2025, and on the Maturity Date (each such date, an “Interest Payment Date”), subject to deferral as set forth herein. In the event that any Interest Payment Date falls on a day that is not a Business Day, the interest payment due on that date will be postponed to the next day that is a Business Day, and no interest will accrue as a result of that postponement. “Business Day” means any day other than (i) a Saturday or Sunday, (ii) a day on which banking institutions in The City of New York are authorized or required by law or executive order to remain closed or (iii) a day on which the Corporate Trust Office is closed for business. Defaulted Interest and interest deferred pursuant to said Indenture will bear additional interest to the extent permitted by law, at the rate in effect from time to time, from and including the relevant Interest Payment Date, compounded on each subsequent Interest Payment Date.

The interest so payable, and punctually paid or duly provided for, on any Interest Payment Date, as provided in such Indenture, shall be paid to the Person in whose name this Note (or one or more Predecessor Securities) is registered at the close of business on the Regular Record Date for such interest, which shall be the March 1 or September 1 (in each case, whether or not a Business Day), as the case may be, immediately preceding such Interest Payment Date. Any such interest not so punctually paid or duly provided for shall forthwith cease to be payable to the Holder on such Regular Record Date and may either be paid, in the case of deferred interest, as provided in the following paragraph, and otherwise to the Person in whose name this Note (or one or more Predecessor Securities) is registered at the close of business on a Special Record Date for the payment of Defaulted Interest to be fixed by the Trustee, notice whereof shall be given to Holders of Notes not less than 10 days prior to such Special Record Date, or be paid at any time in any other lawful manner, all as more fully provided in said Indenture.

Unless the Company has redeemed all of the outstanding Notes as of the Initial Interest Reset Date, the Company shall appoint a calculation agent (the “Calculation Agent”) with respect to the Notes prior to the Reset Interest Determination Date preceding the Initial Interest Reset Date. The Company or any of its affiliates may assume the duties of the Calculation Agent. The applicable interest rate for each Interest Reset Period will be determined by the Calculation Agent as of the applicable Reset Interest Determination Date. If the Company or one of its affiliates is not the Calculation Agent, the Calculation Agent shall notify the Company of the interest rate for the relevant Interest Reset Period promptly upon such determination. The Company shall notify the Trustee of such interest rate, promptly upon making or being notified of such determination. The Calculation Agent’s determination of any interest rate and its calculation of the amount of interest for any Interest Reset Period beginning on or after the Initial Interest Reset Date will be conclusive and binding absent manifest error, will be made in the Calculation Agent’s sole discretion and, notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the Indenture or this Note, will become effective without consent from any other person or entity. Such determination of any interest rate and calculation of the amount of interest will be on file at the Company’s principal offices and will be made available to any Holder upon request.

So long as no Event of Default with respect to this Note has occurred or is continuing, the Company shall have the right at any time during the term of this Note to defer payment of interest on this Note for one or more consecutive Interest Periods that do not exceed five years for any single Deferral Period, during which the Company shall have the right to make partial payments of interest on any Interest Payment Date, and at the end of which the Company shall pay all interest then accrued and unpaid; provided, however, that no Deferral Period shall extend beyond the Maturity Date or the earlier accelerated maturity date arising from an Event of Default or redemption of this Note. Upon the termination of any Deferral Period and upon the payment of all deferred interest then due, the Company may elect to begin a new Deferral Period, subject to the above requirements.

So long as any Notes remain outstanding, if the Company has given notice of its election to defer interest payments on the Notes but the related Deferral Period has not yet commenced or a Deferral Period is continuing, the Company shall not, and shall not permit any Subsidiary to, (i) declare or pay any dividends or other distributions on, or redeem, purchase, acquire or make a liquidation payment with respect to, any shares of the Company’s capital stock, (ii) make any payment of principal of, or interest or premium, if any, on or repay, purchase or redeem any debt securities of the Company that rank upon the Company’s liquidation on a parity with this Note (including the Pari Passu Securities) or junior to this Note or (iii) make any guarantee payments regarding any guarantee issued by the Company of securities of any Subsidiary if the guarantee ranks upon the Company’s liquidation on a parity with or junior to this Note (other than (a) any purchase, redemption or other acquisition of shares of its capital stock in connection with (1) any employment contract, benefit plan or other similar arrangement with or for the benefit of any one or more of its employees, officers, directors, consultants or independent contractors, (2) the satisfaction of the Company’s obligations pursuant to any contract entered into prior to the beginning of the applicable Deferral Period, (3) a dividend reinvestment or shareholder purchase plan, or (4) the issuance of shares of the Company’s capital stock, or securities convertible into or exercisable for such shares, as consideration in an acquisition transaction, the definitive agreement for which is entered into prior to the applicable

Deferral Period, (b) any exchange, redemption or conversion of any class or series of the Company’s capital stock, or the capital stock of one of its Subsidiaries, for any other class or series of its capital stock, or of any class or series of its indebtedness for any class or series of its capital stock, (c) any purchase of fractional interests in shares of the Company’s capital stock pursuant to the conversion or exchange provisions of such shares or the securities being converted or exchanged, (d) any declaration of a dividend in connection with any shareholder rights plan, or the issuance of rights, stock or other property under any shareholder rights plan, or the redemption or purchase of rights pursuant thereto, (e) any dividend in the form of stock, warrants, options or other rights where the dividend stock or stock issuable upon exercise of such warrants, options or other rights is the same stock as that on which the dividend is being paid or ranks equally with or junior to such stock, or (f) (1) any payment of current or deferred interest on Parity Securities that is made pro rata to the amounts due on such Parity Securities (including the Notes), and (2) any payments of principal or current or deferred interest on Parity Securities that, if not made, would cause the Company to breach the terms of the instrument governing such Parity Securities).

The Company shall give written notice of its election to commence or continue any Deferral Period to the Trustee and the Holders of all Notes then Outstanding at least one Business Day and not more than 60 Business Days before the next Interest Payment Date. Such notice shall be given to the Trustee and the Holder of this Note at such Holder’s address appearing in the Security Register by first-class mail, postage prepaid (or, as long as the Notes are held through DTC, such notice shall be transmitted in accordance with applicable procedures of DTC).

Payment of the principal of (and premium, if any) and interest on this Note will be made at the paying agency office or agency of the Company maintained for that purpose in the United States, in such coin or currency of the United States of America as at the time of payment is legal tender for payment of public and private debts; provided, however, that, at the option of the Company, payment of interest may be made (i) by check mailed to the address of the Person entitled thereto as such address shall appear in the Security Register or (ii) by wire transfer in immediately available funds at such place and to such bank account number as may be designated by the Person entitled thereto as specified in the Security Register in writing not less than ten days before the relevant Interest Payment Date.

The indebtedness evidenced by this Note is, to the extent provided in the Indenture, subordinate and junior in right of payment to the prior payment in full of all Senior Indebtedness, and this Note is issued subject to the provisions of the Indenture with respect thereto. Each Holder of this Note, by accepting the same, (a) agrees to and shall be bound by such provisions, (b) authorizes and directs the Trustee on such Holder’s behalf to take such actions as may be necessary or appropriate to effectuate the subordination so provided and (c) appoints the Trustee such Holder’s attorney-in-fact for any and all such purposes. Each Holder hereof, by such Holder’s acceptance hereof, waives all notice of the acceptance of the subordination provisions contained herein and in the Indenture by each holder of Senior Indebtedness, whether now outstanding or hereafter incurred, and waives reliance by each such holder upon said provisions.

The Company and, by acceptance of this Note or a beneficial interest in this Note, each Holder and beneficial owner of this Note agree to treat this Note as indebtedness for United States federal income tax purposes.

By acceptance of this Note or a beneficial interest in this Note, each Holder hereof and any person acquiring a beneficial interest herein, agree that either (A) no portion of the assets used by such purchaser to acquire and hold this Note or a beneficial interest in this Note constitutes assets of any (i) employee benefit plan subject to Title I of the U.S. Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974, as amended (“ERISA”), (ii) any plan, individual retirement accounts and other arrangement subject to Section 4975 of the U.S. Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”), or provisions under any federal, state, local, non-U.S. or other laws or regulations that are similar to such provisions of ERISA or the Code (collectively, “Similar Laws”), and (iii) entities whose underlying assets are considered to include “plan assets” of any such plan, account or arrangement within the meaning of Section 3(42) of ERISA as modified by 29 CFR § 2510.3-101 or under any applicable Similar Laws or (B) the purchase and holding of this Note or a beneficial interest in this Note by such purchaser will not constitute a non-exempt prohibited transaction under Section 406 of ERISA or Section 4975 of the Code or a similar violation under any applicable Similar Laws.

Reference is hereby made to the further provisions of this Note set forth on the reverse hereof, which further provisions shall for all purposes have the same effect as if set forth at this place.

Unless the certificate of authentication hereon has been executed by the Trustee referred to on the reverse hereof by manual or electronic signature, this Note shall not be entitled to any benefit under the Indenture or be valid or obligatory for any purpose.

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the Company has caused this instrument to be duly executed.

All terms used in this Note that are defined in the Indenture shall have the meanings assigned to them in the Indenture.

The Notes shall be redeemable at the election of the Company in accordance with the terms of the Indenture. In particular, this Note is redeemable:

(a) in whole at any time or in part from time to time (a) during the three-month period prior to, and including, September 15, 2034, or (b) the three-month period prior to, and including, each subsequent Interest Reset Date thereafter (each such period, a “Par Call Period”), in each case at 100% of the principal amount of the Notes being redeemed;

(b) in whole at any time or in part from time to time, on any date that is not within a Par Call Period, at a redemption price equal to the greater of (i) the principal amount of the Notes being redeemed and (ii) the sum of the present values of the remaining scheduled payments of principal of and interest on the Notes being redeemed discounted to the redemption date (assuming the Notes matured on the next following Interest Reset Date (the “Reference Date”)) on a semi-annual basis (assuming a 360-day year consisting of twelve 30-day months) at the Treasury Rate, plus 40 basis points, less interest accrued to the redemption date;

(c) in whole, but not in part, at any time within 90 days after the occurrence of a Tax Event or a Regulatory Capital Event, at a redemption price equal to 100% of the principal amount of the Notes being redeemed; or

Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company may not redeem the Notes unless all accrued and unpaid interest, including deferred interest (and compounded interest), has been paid in full on all Outstanding Notes for all Interest Periods ending on or before the Redemption Date.

The Trustee shall have no responsibility to calculate, or to verify the Company’s calculations of, the redemption price.

In the event of a redemption of this Note in part only, a new Note or Notes and of a like tenor for the unredeemed portion hereof will be issued in the name of the Holder hereof upon the cancellation hereof.

No sinking fund is provided for the Notes.

The Indenture contains provisions for satisfaction and discharge of the entire indebtedness of this Note upon compliance by the Company with certain conditions set forth in the Indenture.

The Indenture permits, with certain exceptions as therein provided, the Company and the Trustee at any time to enter into a supplemental indenture or indentures for the purpose of modifying in any manner the rights and obligations of the Company and of the Holders of the Notes, with the consent of the Holders of not less than a majority in principal amount of the Outstanding Notes to be affected by such supplemental indenture. The Indenture also contains provisions permitting Holders of specified percentages in principal amount of the Notes at the time Outstanding, on behalf of the Holders of all Notes, to waive compliance by the Company with certain provisions of the Indenture and certain past defaults under the Indenture and their consequences. Any such consent or waiver by the Holder of this Note shall be conclusive and binding upon such Holder and upon all future Holders of this Note and of any Note issued upon the registration of transfer hereof or in exchange herefor or in lieu hereof, whether or not notation of such consent or waiver is made upon this Note.

As provided in and subject to the provisions of the Indenture, if an Event of Default as set forth in the Indenture occurs, the principal amount of the Notes shall automatically become due and payable; provided that in any such case the payment of principal and interest on such Notes shall remain subordinated to the extent provided in Article XIV of the Existing Indenture.

denominations and for the same aggregate principal amount, will be issued to the designated transferee or transferees. No service charge shall be made for any such registration of transfer or exchange, but the Company may require payment of a sum sufficient to cover any tax or other governmental charge payable in connection therewith.
